Phase behaviour of dehydrated phosphatidylcholines [PDF]

, 2016
Dehydrated DLPC, DMPC, DPPC and DSPC have been characterised at temperatures below the diacyl carbon chain-melting transition (Tm), using DSC. For the first time, the existence of pre-Tm transition processes, which are, usually, only observed in the ...

Smart, Bio‐Inspired Polymers and Bio‐Based Molecules Modified by Zwitterionic Motifs to Design Next‐Generation Materials for Medical Applications

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bio‐based and (semi‐)synthetic zwitterion‐modified novel materials and fully synthetic next‐generation alternatives show the importance of material design for different biomedical applications. The zwitterionic character affects the physiochemical behavior of the material and deepens the understanding of chemical interaction mechanisms within the ...

Biomembranal Myristoyl-Phosphatidylcholine as a Potential Target of the Cell Injury Activity of Vitamin D Decomposition Products in Eukaryotic Cells

Frontiers in Bioscience-Landmark
Background: Vitamin D decomposition products target a myristic acid sidechain of the predominant glycerophospholipid constructed in the biomembranes of Helicobacter pylori, causing gastric cancer in humans, and disrupt the membrane ...

Mass spectrometry of the phosphatidyl amino alcohols: detection of molecular species and use of low voltage spectra and metastable scanning in the elucidation of structure

Journal of Lipid Research, 1972
The basic fragmentation mechanisms occurring in the mass spectra of the phosphatidylcholines have been described previously, and evidence was adduced to show that many of the more abundant ions are related by electron impact-induced processes.

Structural library and visualization of endogenously oxidized phosphatidylcholines using mass spectrometry-based techniques

Nature Communications, 2021
Oxidized phosphatidylcholines (oxPCs) are a structurally diverse class of lipids associated with various diseases. Here, the authors use mass spectrometry to construct a spectral library of 465 oxPCs and subsequently profile oxPCs formed during ...

Molecular Weight Dependence of Polymersome Membrane Elasticity and Stability

, 2001
Vesicles prepared in water from a series of diblock copolymers and termed "polymersomes" are physically characterized. With increasing molecular weight $\bar{M}_n$, the hydrophobic core thickness $d$ for the self-assembled bilayers of polyethyleneoxide -

Sets of coregulated serum lipids are associated with Alzheimer's disease pathophysiology [PDF]

, 2019
Introduction: Comorbidity with metabolic diseases indicates that lipid metabolism plays a role in the etiology of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Comprehensive lipidomic analysis can provide new insights into the altered lipid metabolism in AD.

LipoGels: Robust Self‐Lubricating Physically Cross‐Linked Alginate Hydrogels Embedded with Liposomes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Physically cross‐linked alginate hydrogels embedded with 1,2‐dipalmitoyl‐sn‐glycero‐3‐phosphocholine liposomes (LipoGels) are prepared under optimized conditions to avoid shrinkage and achieve structural uniformity. LipoGels demonstrate robust mechanical strength (Young's modulus ≈1 MPa), excellent lubrication (friction coefficient ≈0.021), and ...

a targeted metabolomic approach in two German prospective cohorts [PDF]

, 2018
Metabolomic approaches in prospective cohorts may offer a unique snapshot into early metabolic perturbations that are associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) in healthy people.

Tailoring the Properties of Functional Materials With N‐Oxides

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The properties of materials bearing N‐oxide groups are often dominated by the polar N+─O− bond. It provides hydrophilicity, selective ion‐binding, electric conductivity, or antifouling properties. Many of the underlying mechanisms have only recently been discovered, and the interest in N‐oxide materials is rapidly growing.
